Chapter 233: What on earth
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The test really surprised him and gave him a new insight into the Soul Power that he could utilize in actual combat. This was truly Shrek Academy. This apparatus was interesting!
The metal doors on both sides opened and Lan Xuanyu exited from the other side. The next apparatus was just two steps away.
With curiosity and excitement in him, he entered.
There was a seat in this apparatus, so Lan Xuanyu walked over and sat down. One by one, the metal hoops buckled up once again. This time, his arms and torso were buckled as well; a helmet descended and landed on his head. He could feel a layer of cushion pressed tightly against his forehead, neck, and the back of his head.
The metal door closed and it became pitch-black in the apparatus.
There wasn’t an alarm like the previous apparatus. Lan Xuanyu suddenly felt numbness in his scalp, and there were stimulating sensations coming from his brain all of a sudden. Under this stimulation, his Spiritual Power was automatically released. A faint yellow glow filled the entire room as his Spiritual Power was released, and the intensity of this glow continued increasing.
After some time, there was a shrilling alarm that resounded, “DI DI DI, DI DI DI!”
Lan Xuanyu jumped—what was going on here? An urgent electronic alert rang at this time, “Warning, warning. Apparatus failure, apparatus failure. Please break free as soon as possible; otherwise, your life is in danger. ”
“What? Failure?” Lan Xuanyu was stunned, but he quickly felt the simulations on his head intensify.
He was flabbergasted, but he obviously wouldn’t just sit there and wait for death. The bloodline vortex in his body was immediately triggered and burst forth. He put out force from both arms and released his Spiritual Power to resist the stimulation from that helmet. In just a moment, Lan Xuanyu’s skin reddened. He wasn’t sure why, but with his Spiritual Power being oppressed, he was unable to release his Martial Soul.
Five seconds, he only struggled for five seconds and the stimulation was gone.
“End of the test, please do not panic.”
The metal hoops unbuckled automatically and the helmet rose up.
Amidst Lan Xuanyu’s slight confusion, an electronic voice resounded, “Name: Lan Xuanyu. Spiritual Power: 571, Explosive Spiritual Power: 612. Physical resistance: 706 kilograms.”
What on earth?
Lan Xuanyu stood up, dumbfounded.
He was smart, so he immediately understood what happened. That so-called alert just now was fake? It was to make him have an outburst and struggle to break free? This worked too?
The corners of his lips twitched. This assessment by Shrek was certainly… different…
Now he understood why they didn’t allow the candidates to see each other—it would spill the beans. They were amazing!
Entering the third apparatus. Lan Xuanyu was much more careful this time. He took a look around first, then realized that the metal doors were shut.
Then, the place lit up and it was blue at first. Very soon, however, it turned to red, green, purple, yellow, and more colors. The colors kept changing non-stop, which made him feel a little dizzy.
Just then, Lan Xuanyu suddenly felt that his entire body was very light and was actually floating. ‘What’s this? Anti-gravitational force?’
He spread his limbs instinctively to maintain his balance.
He wanted to maintain his balance, but the apparatus had other plans for him. Air began rushing in from all directions, the force very strong. Lan Xuanyu’s body began spinning out of control in this apparatus.
His body spun violently, and with the burst of multi-colored lights in the room, Lan Xuanyu felt like the entire world was spinning; he felt very uncomfortable.
Although he didn’t know what this assessment was about, it felt horrendous!
At this moment, Lan Xuanyu suddenly felt very grateful towards that unreliable Master Yin. Almost instinctively, he recalled the time when he took the space warship for the very first time. Rushing out to vomit was terrible!
His body was spinning uncontrollably right now, but the force was definitely far less than in the space warship. He curled up his body and held his head in his hands, making his body into a ball shape. Doing so would at least not make the impact as hard when he knocked on the four sides.
Very soon, he realized that the interior of this apparatus was lined with soft pads to prevent injuries. But all the pads had big holes to blow air out. He was akin to a sphere spinning and knocking around continuously.
Ling Yiyi was waiting outside the third apparatus. All five people before Lan Xuanyu, including Qian Lei, currently had a bucket in front of them and were puking badly.
There was no way to not vomit. The world spun the second they stepped out of the apparatus, and they couldn’t even walk properly. The difference was the time they stayed in the apparatus.
Ling Yiyi looked at the screen outside the third apparatus, and a tinge of surprise flashed in her eyes. She mumbled to herself, “His sense of balance is great! It’s been a minute. It’s not easy to last a minute for the first time. His vital signs are completely normal too. Not bad.”
Two minutes, three minutes!
Ling Yiyi pressed on the button and stopped the apparatus.
After some time, Lan Xuanyu walked out of the apparatus, feeling light. His face was a little pale, but the intense dizziness was fading away quickly. Then he saw the five participants before him puking their guts out.
Ling Yiyi brought a bucket over for him to vomit in and asked, “Do you need this?”
Lan Xuanyu shook his head. “No, thank you.”
Ling Yiyi smiled. “Your sense of balance isn’t bad. If you can get through the rest of the tests, I will request that the academy allow you to do the extreme balance test.”
Lan Xuanyu’s expression changed and he smiled bitterly. “Thank you, teacher. I’ll work hard to get into Shrek first.”
“I’m not a teacher,” Ling Yiyi said. “I’m only the counselor for the test this time. If there’s nothing else, you may proceed to the fourth apparatus; the others will take some time.”
“Alright.” Lan Xuanyu walked over to the fourth apparatus, the last one in this room.
Through the previous physical tests, he learned that Shrek Academy’s tests were very comprehensive, especially these special apparatuses; it was obvious that they weren’t cheap.
In the fourth apparatus, the lighting was great and there was a human dummy target.
“Attack with all your strength, once with pure physical strength, once with all your attack abilities,” the electronic voice resounded.
Lan Xuanyu listened very carefully. Based on all the previous Shrek Academy tests, he knew that they wouldn’t say anything without consideration.
Pure physical strength meant that the use of Soul Power was not allowed. However, did that include the power of the bloodline?
The second round went without saying, he just had to exhaust his abilities for the attack.
Instead of rushing to begin, he put himself in the right state first. The previous tests, especially that test of balance, had used up quite a bit of energy.
After calming down a little, Lan Xuanyu decided to be slightly conservative and not use the power of his bloodline for the first round. He could stack all his abilities during the second round anyway. This should be a comprehensive test of strength.
Lan Xuanyu took a deep breath and his chest puffed up. His eyes focused on the target and he stepped forward. The muscle in his right arm bulged out as he threw a punch with all his might.
A loud “bang” resounded.
What surprised Lan Xuanyu was that the target didn’t shake at all. It was as if his attack was completely absorbed and it disappeared in the target. He wasn’t just surprised—this apparatus was really amazing!
“Get ready for round two.”
